Secure Management Portal

Our management portal is developed with security in mind and utilizes proven security techniques throughout the whole software development life cycle. We protect against: Ajax, CSS, SQL, and Command line injections, Cross-Site Request Forgery (CSRF), Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), Privilege Escalation, Redirection attacks, Session hijacking, Session replay attacks and more. We perform regular security scans of our systems (internal and third party) in order to guarantee the highest level of security for your data with the highest standard of 2,048 Bit forced TLS encrypted access. Additionally, system logs record each action or request made by individual users.

Hierarchical Approval Processes

Our hierarchical approval system can be used to ensure your collaborative business-critical processes are guarded with self-configured approval settings, preventing actions until all stakeholders have indicated approval. Our system allows multiple approval hierarchies if needed, so that if the managers of one hierarchy approve a transaction, the action may then progress to the next hierarchy for approval. The action is not carried out until approved by the last member of the relevant hierarchical tier. Hierarchical configurations per division are also possible.

Two-Factor authentication

Secure your account with a second user authentication factor. Choose between SMS or RFC 6238 compatible OTP applications like Google Authenticator. In addition to safeguarding user sign-in, two-factor authentication can be implemented for certain actions, such as domain modifications or DNS changes. Two-factor authentication can be set according to the needs of individual division or business unit.

Fine-grained user permissions

User permissions are fully customizable. For as many users as your business model requires, each user action can be allowed or disallowed according to your specifications. Your domain portfolio can be arranged in groups such as divisions, each with its own customizable user access, permissions, and billing configuration User access can also be restricted by IP address or range.

Data Center

Boasting a TÜV-certified Tier III data center in Germany, we provide comprehensive data protection and ensure 100% compliance with the German Federal Data Protection Act and the European General Data Protection Regulation. As a German data center, the USA Freedom Act / Patriot Act do not apply, preventing access by US authorities.
